JetBrains YouTrack 2.0 More Customizable yet Amazingly Easy To Use

Innovative bug and issue tracker becomes even more flexible and secure without
sacrificing simplicity

May 26, 2010

Prague, Czech Republic, May 26, 2010 — JetBrains®, creators of
intelligent, productivity-enhancing development tools, today announced the release of
YouTrack 2.0, a more customizable version of its fast and innovative keyboard-centric
bug and issue tracking system.

YouTrack offers fantastic time savings for both bug submitters and development teams. Its
lightning-fast issue reporting is complemented with powerful native-language-like search
queries and batch operations on multiple issues from the command window.

In its second major release, YouTrack 2.0 adds custom issue attributes to help
development teams easily adapt the bug tracker to their specific needs, and to migrate
existing projects from other issue trackers. Concerned about security, YouTrack also
introduces flexible access control by letting users strengthen permissions for
individual issues that contain non-public data, without limiting access to the whole
project. All the while, YouTrack remains focused on being an intelligent and easy-to-use
issue tracker, packing the majority of its functionality in just two controls — a
search box and command window.

"Someone once said that a product is well designed when you use it without thinking about
what makes it so good. That's our goal in making YouTrack, too," said Vadim Gurov,
YouTrack Team Lead. "If you want to spend less time on reporting and processing bugs,
YouTrack is probably for you. And with the latest security and customization
enhancements, it not only improves your performance but also fully adapts to your team's
needs."
